How to fix the refrigerator

The refrigerator during its proper operation is one of the most reliable types of household appliances. Usually, the term of uninterrupted work is 7-10 years. The most common problems are as follows: cooling gas leakage (system depressurization) and the failure of the compressor. With all the rest, under the power to cope and lonely woman.

The main task before starting the repair is to determine the cause of the breakage. Check the connection to the network and the fact that the refrigerator periodically turns on and off. It is also necessary to check whether the device is frozen. Different light bulb twist and go to the market with it. There is a chance to buy a replacement much more. Insert a light bulb, turning off the refrigerator from the network. Also simply, the steep electrical wiring is also isolated: we turn off the electricity, connect the wires using the soldering iron and isolate.

The next breakdown frequency in the refrigerator is the thermostat. It is responsible for maintaining a given temperature inside the chamber. Located inside the chamber itself or on the refrigerator panel. If the device freezes weakly, you need to check whether the thermostat is in the "Minimum" position. Check the performance of the element itself simply: disconnect the terminals from the part and connect each other. If the refrigerator earned - replace the temperature controller to the new one. In the store you are unlikely to find it, it is better to take advantage of the purchase via the Internet.

In addition, the reason for the poor work of the refrigerator can be not a tightly adjacent door. In this case, it is also desirable to contact the service. Correcting the geometric stalk of the docking, the door can be broken at all.

Another probable breakdown can be the oxidation of connections on the refrigerator control board. In repair, everything is just as simple - we clean the contacts and collect a refrigerator in the reverse order. Everything should earn!

Finally, a few simple guidelines for the extension of the "life" of your worker:

take care of the refrigerator from sharp voltage jumps - use voltage transformers or, to an extreme case, uninterruptible power sources;
do not set the handle of the temperature controller to the maximum position - two degrees in the chamber the role will not play, but the compressor will last longer;
avoid using sharp items to remove ice, let it melt himself, because any damage to the tube with freon will cause it to leak it (then you will have to call the wizard or change the unit);
place the refrigerator away from heat sources (batteries, stoves), compressor and without them allocates heat.

Remember that the refrigerator will work longer with a careful attitude towards it. Still, if he fails and is not subject to repair - it can always be used in the country area as a locker for things and tools.
